In the third quarter the Reds held their opponents to exactly 0 points as they rolled up a 44 to 7 score. From here on the Red of fense bombarded the basket with a deluge of shots that soon gar nered 72 points on the score sheet as the final whistle blew. Again, as Monday night, it was Harry Pitcaithley that led the Red attack gaining 14 points in the first quarter before being relieved by Irvin Yaffe, and then adding 8 points to it in the last half to make a total of 22 counters. Closely tailing him was frosh Hartmann Goetze with 13 tallies and tall Al Randall with 9 points all garnered in the last half.
